Revision as of 18:58, 2 February 2009

In a covert plan, Tom Zarek, Felix Gaeta, a handful of Marines, civilians and members of the Galactica crew in key positions set in motion their mutiny:

  1. Having already felt out those he can trust, Gaeta walks into the Brig and with the help of sympathetic Marines, frees Vice President Zarek and escorts him to the Hanger Deck.
  2. On the hanger deck, Lt. Margaret "Racetrack" Edmondson, convincing the deck crew and assembled civilians that her Raptor is leaking fuel, and that one spark could set off an explosion, orders them all to evacuate the Deck. This in turn allows Zarek unseen to approach the Raptor, but only to be interrupted by Deck Chief Laird. Laird speaks up that the Raptor is on hold for emergency medical transport and not any bogus VIP shuttle. In Gaeta's attempt to try and explain the group out of this unexpected hurdle, Zarek manages to sneak up behind Laird and picking up a wrench, hits him over the head killing him.
  3. When Gaeta reports for duty, Hoshi notices that there is a launch in progress and that he doesn't have any scheduled in the flight log. Gaeta responds that maybe it is an error and that he should look over the flight log for an update by Laird. When he finds none in the flight log, he suggests calling down to the flight deck. Gaeta stops him and points out that there is no Transponder signal and when Tigh questions Gaeta, his response is that it is probably a dradis ghost. The Admiral and XO fall for it and Zarek escapes to Colonial one.
  4. When Zarek as a free man once again surprises Lee and the Quorum of 12 when he walks in on there meeting.
  5. In CIC, everything is going according to plan as an alarm sounds indicating a fire on C Deck near the Main Antennas. Adama orders in the DC units, but Gaeta points out that the fire might not be an accident and that they will be in the dark if the antenna array goes down. Adama orders a Marine detail to escort the DC units, thus allowing more Marines to join the mutineers in the forward section of C Deck raiding the small arms locker.
  6. Zarek back aboard Colonial One, convinces Lee who is having trouble getting a hold of his father on Galactica suggesting that his father released him. Lee leaves to prove Zarek wrong, thus leaving the Quorum to Zarek.
  7. In the CIC Gaeta informs Adama and Tigh that they lost communications ship wide as well as back ups.
  8. On the Hanger Deck, Lee is greeted by Marines and Conner who proceed to rough him up and take him hostage. Before they are able to do anything more, Starbuck interrupts and kills the marine pointing a gun at Lee's head then shoots Skulls in the shoulder.
  9. They begin to systematically take hostage all the Cylons and those they know are friends, lovers or otherwise supporters of the current alliance on Galactica. Among those taken are Caprica-Six, Athena, Helo, their daughter Hera and one of the Final Five Anders and lock them away in the brig. Galen Tyrol, however avoids capture so far.
  10. Hoshi back in the CIC realizes that none of the devices used to scan for carbon monoxide sensors should be going through the roof, but he only reads normal levels. Adama is tired of being blind and sends a crew member to go to C Deck and report back. Once he returns and reports what he has found, Gaeta orders the Marines to take Adama, Tigh, Hoshi and the senior staff into custudy. With Galactica under the control of Gaeta and the Quorum surely backing Zarek the mutiny was a success, for how well it last only time will tell.
